[Rip Actual]

I will say again, I didn’t do this to my car. This happened to my car, luckily the person who did it is paying for it.

I agree but how do you know they are on if they aren't cycling. I am going to turn that feature off as I could accidentally bump the setting and not know for months. Besides that, I prefer to be the judge of when I need wipers.

No offense, it’s called “attention to detail”.

Turned auto wipers off in the configuration and they started cycling. Somewhere I bumped the stalk and moved it up one notch to the auto mode. Good thing I caught it before it got me in trouble. I find myself turning off a lot of the new features making the new car more like the old one. Rev match was driving me up the wall with all the engine blipping and it probably was adding to fuel consumption. I have been driving a manual for well over 50 years so leave my gas peddle alone!

You just have to look.

Rain sensing wipers active going into a car wash. Not the best plan.

My mustang will never go through a car wash

So, if your wipers are in auto sensing, you open your hood to check something but it starts raining.....you're Fd? Really? I'd consider that to be a design flaw.
I could see that damage happening if the wiper arms were up, away from the glass and the hood opened but not when the blades are still on the glass.

So here is the design flaw I posted to youtube. One person said they were going just stuff rags in these openings??It seems that this doesn't bother some people, perhaps i'm crazy but this is doing damage to your car every time you drive it.

It's been a few months. Has anyone come up with a solution to this?
